-====== Editing Etiquette ====== 
- 
-      * **Major edits should NOT be performed on any contributor's submissions here without his/her express knowledge and permission (with a record of discussion on the Talk page).** 
- 
-===== Exceptions to This Rule ===== 
- 
-  - The author is unknown or no longer an active participant here. 
-  - Editing is required to correct vandalism. 
-  - Minor grammatical, punctuation, wiki formatting edits. 
-  - Blatant errors - in which case, a note should be placed within the article by a Staff Editor stating that the information is incorrect as it currently appears and will be amended soon (once the original contributor is notified). 
- 
-      * For all of the above, a record of the editor's reasons and further discussion should be present on the Talk page. 
- 
-====== Commentary ====== 
- 
-And finally, it is easy to understand a contributor's feelings of anger and disappointment when their work is improperly altered. It can take hours to research, compile, and finalize an article. To have that work substantially edited by someone later without the courtesy of prior discussion is wrong and will not be tolerated by the Slackware Linux Documentation Project Staff or community. 
- 
-Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.
